An entry into glory

Little Satish is no more.

He breathed his last a week ago. His little body stopped working as the hepatitis he got in the last days shut down the already weakened frame. This brave little 3 year old slipped into the hands of God.

We mourn the passing of a brave little boy. Our tears are real.

At the small funeral service on the grounds of the municipal crematorium, where his body was laid to rest in a small unmarked plot, Auntie Chinnamma sang a beautiful song in Malayalam.

The pain and the hope of glory were very much there.

Little Satish is no more with us, but he is!

We await the day when he will welcome us. Though very small, and though his life was short - and full of suffering - Satish is in the arms of Jesus.

We are grateful for all the prayers, all the love that this little boy received.

The world is not worthy...
